I can only repeat my urging to watch the National Geographic Channel
"Explorer" , Mammoth Extinction which addresses many of these questions.
Repeated the weekend!

Playing Devil's advocate for a moment, is there a chance the author is

firing a shotgun shell full of coarse iron filings at a tusk, like using
paper
from the appropriate era to forge a historical document?
I'm wondering if there might have been some sort of attempt to clean the
fossils, such as listed under "MECHANICAL PREPARATION" here
http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/natsci/vertpaleo/resources/prep.htm
that could have damaged the fossils and left behind bits of iron.
